This collection covers all kinds of cicada scenes, so there's something for every little artist. Kids can color a cicada perched on a leafy branch, a happy one singing away in the summer sunshine, or a classic pairing of the cicada and the ant from the famous fable. There are cicadas hidden in tall grasses, big detailed close-ups packed with fine lines, and even a baby cicada crawling up from underground. From a bird's-eye view to a cicada resting on a Mediterranean olive tree, each page has clean outlines and bold shapes that make coloring easy and satisfying for kids of all skill levels.
Easy Printing and Coloring Tips
Printing is simple: just choose your favorite design, download the PDF, and print it on standard letter-size paper. For the best results, use plain white paper so colors stay bright and true. Younger children aged 3 to 6 will enjoy the simpler outlines with thick lines, while older kids can dive into the detailed close-ups. Encourage them to start with lighter colors first, then add darker shades for depth. Colored pencils work great for fine details, while crayons and markers are perfect for filling large areas quickly and smoothly.

Coloring ideas for cicada
Cicadas often show shades of green, brown, and black, so try olive green or golden brown for the body and clear or pale gray for the delicate wings. Add tiny touches of red or orange near the eyes for a lifelike look. For background scenes, use warm yellows for the sun, deep greens for leaves, and soft blues for the summer sky. Blending two greens on the wings creates a lovely shimmery effect.

What is a cicada and why do they sing?
Cicadas are large insects known for the loud buzzing sound they make in summer, especially in warm, sunny regions. Only the males sing, using special organs on their bodies to attract females. Baby cicadas hatch underground and can live there for years before crawling up to become adults. That's why our collection includes a fun page of a baby cicada emerging from the soil.
